Tributyrin is a triglyceride containing three butyrate molecules esterified to glycerol, augments butyrate concentrations after hydrolyzation by lipases. Butyric acid is well-known as an
alternative to Antibiotic Growth Promoter (AGP) to counteract
problems derived from Endotoxin exposure.
Tributyrin’s Feature
Tributyrin is hardly decomposed through the stomach, but decomposed into butyric acid and glycerol under the action of pancreatic lipase or other esterases,thereby providing sufficient energy
source (butyric acid) for the intestines.
Half-life up to 40min,Tributyrin overcomes the defect of fast metabolism of butyrate in the blood, improves blood active oxygen carrying capacity and mitochondrial function for ATP synthesis, and
reduce the fatal infection mortality.
The asymmetry of the molecular structure at both ends empowers it’s emulsifying properties and enhances the utilization rate of fat.
Tributyrin has molecular polarity and can effectively penetrate the cell membranes of some viruses and bacteria to get bacteriostatic effect.It can kill the E.coli, salmonella, streptococcus,etc.
